Professor Reggie Almeida of the Gracie Barra Brazilian jiu-jitsu school in Spring Hill, Tennessee, who has been traveling with Megadeth on the group's recent tours, has uploaded video of the band's soundcheck for tonight's show at Revel in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The video features new touring guitarist Teemu Mäntysaari - filling in for Kiko Loureiro.
